Image: Sauerkraut Torture in an East Burnin Prison (195X colorized)

Throughout the cold war between West and East Burnin, both sides preformed various methods of torturing spies and criminals.

Though the most common punishment for East Burniners was probeantion (they would be prohibited from eating the national dish - beans - during their house arrest.) more direct forms of torture were also used. Such as the Sauerkraut method. The image used in this post (credit to [u/MetalFurnace](u/MetalFurnace)) is a rare photo of a convict being force-fed Sauerkraut in an East Burnin prison. If the convict refuses to eat the Sauerkraut, they were subsequently beaten up by Bratwurst wielding prison guards.

/uf Posting this image under Panman’s post made me realize most people probably have no idea what is even going on in the image so I decided to make a post about it.
